Among these five superpowers, the Cosmic Galaxy Bank and the First Cosmic Bank are both large banks that are spread throughout the human population. Anyone with an identity in the universe will deposit their money in these two banks.

The Cosmic Mercenary Alliance has the most powerful individuals in the entire human population. Over 99% of human warriors and mind teachers in the universe have joined the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance. Fortunately, this mercenary alliance is only a loose organization that does not fight for power and profit. Otherwise, the other four superpowers would not be able to sit still.

The Giant Axe Fighting Arena is the fairest fighting arena in the human population and the strongest force of humans.

Lastly, there is the Virtual Universe Company, which controls a virtual universe that can be considered as the second world of humanity. All 1008 cosmic countries rely on this virtual universe, showing its immense power.

Under these five superpowers are the 1008 cosmic countries, followed by countless medium civilization empires. The elementary civilizations have almost no status in the universe.

Guided by Babata, the four of them arrived at the branch of the Virtual Universe Company on the Qiu Long Star. Even though it was just a branch building, it was almost more magnificent than the previous Black Dragon Mountain Empire office.

At the Virtual Universe Company, the four of them successively applied for virtual universe accounts and connected their auxiliary brain to form a connection, allowing them to log in through the auxiliary brain.

“Give me 10 more consciousness induction helmets and anonymous accounts, and pay for a hundred years.”

Luo Feng said to the company staff.

“Luo Feng, who are you planning to give them to?”

Hong raised an eyebrow and asked Luo Feng.

“The leaders of the five major countries.”

Luo Feng replied in a low voice.

The Thunder God’s expression also changed slightly as he nodded.

In order to make the Earth keep up with the pace of the universe, their efforts alone were not enough. They must make all the people on Earth work together. However, currently, the people on Earth were still too weak and not suitable for connecting to the universe. Moreover, they didn’t have the capital yet. So, let’s start with the leaders of the five major countries first, let them understand the dangers of the universe step by step.

“Where should we go next? We don’t have much money.”

“Should we go to the advanced virtual universe first?”

“Of course, we should go to the bank first!”

At this time, Xu Zong spoke up, “I have a lot of unused equipment in my ring that I can sell! After selling them, we can get a large sum of money. We need money to get things done!”

“I agree!”

Babata also nodded, “Many services in the virtual universe also require money. Without money, we can’t do anything!”

“You just said that we can’t do anything without an identity!”

“Hey, you stupid Thunder God, are you trying to oppose me, the great Babata?”

Babata became angry and immediately started arguing with the Thunder God.

The four of them then went to the Cosmic Galaxy Bank and each opened an account inside. These accounts could also be managed by the auxiliary brain and intelligent beings. Payments could be made with just a thought, making it very convenient.

After opening the accounts, Xu Zong planned to sell the pile of weapons in his ring.

“Let’s go to the roadside treasure shop. Their inventory is usually not as good as the specialty stores, so they will offer higher prices,” Babata said.

So, the four of them found a small treasure shop on the roadside and walked in.

“Hello, what would you like to buy?”

A planetary-level clerk walked out and smiled at the four of them.

“I want to sell Force equipment in large quantities!”

Xu Zong stepped forward and said.

Seeing the powerful robot behind him, the clerk didn’t dare to be careless and went inside the shop, bringing out a stellar-level clerk.

“What would you like to sell, sir?”

The stellar-level clerk asked politely.

“These!”

Xu Zong turned his hand, and hundreds of Force weapons and armor appeared on the ground.

Many customers in the shop were also shocked by this scene, knowing that this young man had a spatial ring, and the scale was not small.

The stellar-level clerk’s face also turned pale when he saw so many equipment, but he quickly composed himself and began to count.

“Well, these are all first and second-tier Force weapons, and they are almost undamaged. The materials used are also good.”

The clerk pondered for a moment and continued, “First-tier Force weapons won’t sell for much. I can offer you 200,000 Black Dragon Coins for each piece of first-tier Force weapon. Second-tier Force weapons are easier to sell, and I can offer 10 million for each piece.”

“That’s too low!”

Xu Zong shook his head.

“Don’t try to trick me. All of my first-tier equipment are top-grade and excellent, and they are completely undamaged. If they were put in a specialty store, the top-grade ones could sell for at least 1 million, and the excellent ones could sell for over 2 million! So, I won’t ask for too much from you. Give me 700,000 for each top-grade first-tier piece and 1.5 million for each excellent one!”

“As for these second-tier ones, I know the quality is not very high. The low-grade ones can be sold for 20 million each, and the medium-grade ones can be sold for 50 million. How about that?”

“Sir, your offer is a bit unreasonable!”

The stellar-level clerk frowned and said.

“These first-tier ones are indeed of good quality. I can offer 700,000 for the top-grade ones and 1.3 million for the excellent ones. As for these second-tier ones, their quality is mostly medium and low-grade. Even if they are sold in a specialty store, the low-grade ones would only sell for a little over 20 million, and the medium-grade ones would only sell for around 60-70 million. So, I can offer 13 million for the low-grade ones and 40 million for the medium-grade ones. What do you think?”

“You’re trying to cheat me! Give me a little more, or I’ll go to another shop!”

“Well… alright.”

The two of them argued like street vendors for a long time before finally agreeing on a price. The top-grade first-tier pieces were sold for 700,000, the excellent ones for 1.3 million, the low-grade second-tier ones for 14 million, and the medium-grade ones for 40 million.

Even with this price, the shop still made a considerable profit.”Also, can you change my brother’s fire-attribute spear to a light-attribute one? Is that possible?”

Xu Zong pointed at the long spear on Hong’s back and asked the clerk.

Both Xu Zong and Luo Feng had powerful guards, daring to reveal their space rings. Hong, however, did not dare to expose his own space ring. He always carried his spear on his back. Upon hearing Xu Zong’s words, he was taken aback, then cast a grateful look at Xu Zong.

“That’s a small matter!”

The clerk glanced at the spear and agreed readily.

Both parties quickly inspected the goods. There were 96 top-grade first-order items and 232 top-grade items. Selling all of them could earn 368.8 million Black Dragon coins. Among the second-order force weapons, after excluding those given to Luo Feng and others, there were still 8 low-grade, 4 mid-grade items left, which sold for another 272 million Black Dragon coins. In total, they earned 640.8 million Black Dragon coins, equivalent to some celestial-level assets.

The two parties quickly drafted a contract, then the goods were handed over to the shop. With a mere thought, the shop transferred the payment to Xu Zong’s bank account.

Seeing an additional six hundred million Black Dragon coins in his account, Xu Zong breathed a sigh of relief.

“Do you sell Bi Bo Marrow here?”

“Of course!”

The clerk’s eyes lit up, and a smile spread across his face.

“How much do you need? Our shop sells Bi Bo Marrow for 9000 Black Dragon coins per gram!”

“Hmm, give me 30 kilograms for now!”

Xu Zong calculated the cost of his breakthrough to the celestial level and gave a rough estimate.

According to the information from Babata, Bi Bo Marrow was the best cultivation treasure for celestial-level genetic warriors, providing the best enhancement to the body.

Xu Zong’s breakthrough did not require energy, but accumulation. Therefore, he probably needed much less than he had estimated. With this, he could focus on comprehending the laws without worrying about not meeting the standards for the Genius War.

The 30 kilograms of Bi Bo Marrow was soon brought out. Xu Zong put it into his space ring and paid 270 million of the newly acquired 640 million Black Dragon coins, reducing his assets to 370 million.

“Do you guys want to buy anything?”

After finishing his transaction, Xu Zong turned to Hong and the others.

Hong and the War God shook their heads. They didn’t have any money. The most valuable thing they had was the second-order equipment given by Xu Zong. Selling it wouldn’t get them anything good, and they couldn’t bear to let Xu Zong pay for them.

“I’m not in a hurry either.”

Luo Feng thought for a moment and decided not to buy anything in a hurry.

The four of them then left the treasure shop.

They had heard of the fame of the virtual universe and were about to find a place to explore it when Luo Feng’s smart device suddenly vibrated. Someone was calling him through a code.

There was only one person who would do this here.

“Hey, Luo Feng, I’ve finished my business here. Let’s have a meal together!”

A screen lit up on the device, and Gao Sheng on the screen called out to Luo Feng with a full smile.

“Where are you?”

“North City District, Slave Market!”

Slave Market?

Upon hearing this word, Hong and the War God’s expressions changed slightly. Luo Feng’s eyes also flickered. He replied that he would be there soon and then hung up the call.

“Let’s go!”

Xu Zong looked at the three whose expressions had become slightly heavy and took the lead to leave.

The three exchanged glances and followed.

Qiu Long City, North City District.

The Slave Market covered an area of more than 300 kilometers. Although it was only a small part of Qiu Long City, it was comparable to a first-tier city on Earth. All the businessmen here were slave traders, and all the goods they sold were slaves!

“Come and see! Ferocious Iron Luo people, each at the ninth level of the apprentice stage, each only costs 20 Black Dragon coins, cheap and useful, not very intelligent, the perfect choice for hard labor!”

A one-eyed man holding a whip shouted loudly. The whip that fell from time to time made the muscular slaves behind him terrified and trembling, but they dared not complain. Seeing this, the one-eyed man became even more ruthless, as if deliberately showing off how obedient these slaves were.

As soon as they arrived at the Slave Market, they saw such a scene, and the faces of Luo Feng and the others turned ugly.

In the universe, those below the celestial level could not become citizens. Without status, they were like slaves. If they were killed on the street, no one would say that the killer was cruel. It would not violate the imperial law. They would only say that the slave was blind.

Luo Feng and the others thought of the people on Earth. Most of the people on Earth were ordinary people. Although Xu Zong had passed down the Twelve Forms, increasing the proportion of warriors, those with warrior qualifications were still very few. Most people on Earth could not even get a decent citizen status in the universe. Even the invincible War God, who was in the limelight, could only sell for 20 Black Dragon coins in this slave market. The miserable situation made the three of them feel shocked!
